The lovers became good friends, and such friends, that for him, at least, Lange could not feel jealousy, according to Jahn, who adds, "Otherwise he would hardly have taken the rôle of Pierrot in the pantomime in which his wife played Columbine and Mozart the Harlequin."
M. Jahn is more especially in control of Prussia; M. Lang of the north, and Baron de Nostitz of the south, of Germany.
Jahn, p. 177, quoting Temme, "Volkssagen"; Ovid, "Metam." l. iii. fab. 3; Tacitus, "Germ." c. 40. Roger of Wendover, "Flowers of History," sub anno 1057. I quote from Dr. Giles' translation. See his Presidential Address to the Warwickshire Naturalists' and Archæologists' Field Club, 1886. MS. marked D. This entry is an interpolation in a list of mayors and sheriffs in a different handwriting.
She told Otto Jahn long years after, when she was sixty-eight years old, that Beethoven had first inscribed to her the Rondo, Op. 51, No. 2, but, in his fickle way, he transcribed it to the Countess Lichnowsky, and put her own name over the "Moonlight Sonata" instead.

My father had gone to Jena University, when he joined the Burschenschaft, or Students' League, of which I will tell you later. It was pledged to the rescue of the Vaterland.

"Y Cymmrodor," vol. vi. p. 181. Mrs. Bray, vol. i. p. 167; Kuhn, p. 196; Grimm, "Teut. Myth." p. 468, note; "Irish F. L." p. 45; Napier, p. 42. Jahn, p. 52; Campbell, vol. ii. p. 47; Lady Wilde, vol. i. p. 119.
